Capron Funk Bio

Capron Funk used to go skateboarding before shifting his attention toward scootering in 2005. He soon discovered his passion for riding scooters and decided to make a career out of it.

After polishing his scooter-riding skills, Capron Funk began participating in local scooter-riding competitions. While his cousin Corey accompanied him as a fellow participant, Capron’s mother would always be there to support the boys.

His mother used to take both boys to almost all competitions that took place in their city. Capron and Corey kept on participating at the beginner’s level and were soon promoted to the next level. By the end of it all, Capron Funk managed to master many combos, flips, and several other tricks.

In 2015, Capron Funk won second place at the ‘Scooter Hut Pro Series,’ which was held in Melbourne, Australia. He and his cousin, who finished first, received prize money of 20,000 dollars. Capron Funk had performed well at the previous year’s championship too, as he had finished third. He has also participated in many world championships, held in countries like England and Spain. He also competed at a few national professional events, held in places like California, New York, Texas, and Washington.

Capron Funk is among the three scooter riders in the world to have performed a double back and front flip. He is sponsored by the popular manufacturing company ‘Lucky Scooters'.

Capron Funk, along with his brother Tyler Funk and cousin brother Corey Funk, created a YouTube channel to post fun-filled videos and daily vlogs. They then started posting many adventure-filled videos, featuring trampolines and scooter rides.

Their channel Funk Bros also has many challenge and prank videos, which contribute to the number of subscribers. The number of subscribers on the channel shot up when AJ Loft, the creator of ‘RodKingz,’ joined hands with Capron and his team. The channel currently has over 6.64 million subscribers.

Capron Funk and Corey caught AJ Loft’s attention when they were practicing scooter-riding at the ‘Audie Murphy Skate Park.’ AJ Loft instantly knew that he could turn Funk Bros into a significant sports brand across the world. He also runs the family channel named ‘The Funks,’ along with his wife Rydel Lynch. He also has a self-titled channel where he posts vlogs, challenges, and pranks for over 718k subscribers.

When Capron Funk and his team posted their first YouTube video, they completely ignored their video editor and did not bother to credit him. Their act was criticized by many and they were accused of robbing their editor’s effort.

They were then involved in the ‘SMX controversy’ when they tried changing the conventional term ‘scootering’ to ‘SMX’ in order to make it sound cool. Their act was condemned by many scooter enthusiasts and some of them even referred to it as plagiarism.

Capron Funk came up with a public show called ‘MCFLIP.’ In the show, Capron completed a backflip over McDonald's restaurant’s order counter, which left some of the customers terrified. Though many of them simply ignored the entire act, Capron was trying to convince his viewers that the people there were left awestruck.

Capron Funk and his team were also accused of plagiarism by fellow YouTuber Jack Tenney. Jack claimed that Funk Bros had videos similar to his own.
